Del Bac Sentinel Mesquite-Barrel Aged Rye Whiskey 750ml

Del Bac Sentinel Straight Rye Whiskey combines the rugged spirit of classic American rye with a distinctive desert twist, crafted for whiskey enthusiasts seeking bold yet refined flavors. Born from a meticulous blend of three-year-old and two-year-old straight rye whiskies—distilled using 95% rye and 5% malt—the foundation of this spirit is rooted in traditional craftsmanship honed in Indiana’s aging warehouses.

To elevate its character, Sentinel undergoes an innovative finishing process in freshly harvested mesquite-cured casks, infusing subtle notes of smoky sweetness into its core profile. This unique step is followed by filtration through Mesquite charcoal derived from Del Bac’s proprietary malting process, mirroring time-honored techniques while imparting a velvety smoothness that softens its fiery edges. The result is a striking balance: assertive rye spices like black pepper and cinnamon harmonize with hints of mesquite’s earthy warmth—a flavor signature shaped by Sonoran desert inspiration.

Whether sipped neat or used as a base for cocktails, Sentinel delivers complexity that honors America’s oldest whiskey traditions while introducing a modern regional flair. Its 46% ABV ensures rich depth without overpowering subtleties, making it ideal for connoisseurs who appreciate both boldness and approachability.

Available exclusively within California for in-store pickup or省内配送 (shipping within California), this limited-release whiskey stands out among craft ryes by marrying heritage production methods with Sonoran mesquite innovation. Perfect for those looking to explore beyond standard blends or add a unique touch to their collection, Sentinel captures the essence of rugged craftsmanship refined by nature’s elements—a testament to its name’s meaning: “one who watches over.”

Indulge in a spirit that bridges timeless tradition with desert-inspired elegance—where every sip tells a story of bold flavors smoothed by mesquite’s gentle touch.
